The Senegalese ended French military presence democratically & diplomatically without rupturing bilateral relations. If anything, that was a more effective demonstration of 'sovereignty' than some tinpot junta basically swapping France for Russia, & it blowing up in their faces

Delta Force and 160th SOAR conducting an urban training operation in Los Angeles. Few pilots possess the skill to land a helicopter at night in a parking lot surrounded by trees and light poles. But for the 160th, this is just another night at the office.

Those two US Iron Dome batteries were the only land-based deployable Short-Range Air Defense (SHORAD) systems in the entire US Joint Force before their transfer to Israel. US troops were trained and qualified on the system. The 📹👇 includes the capstone demonstration with US operators operating US configuration Iron Dome battery components. Both would have been handy in Epic Fury. The Army's current SHORAD plan, anchored on IFPC Inc. 2, will not generate significant deployable force structure for some time still (early 2030s) though the Army began placing serious orders starting FY'25. The Marines will field their Iron Dome-based Medium-Range Intercept Capability (MRIC) sooner, but not in numbers that offer the coverage the expeditionary Joint Force needs (not its purpose). That said, the Tamir interceptor is now being produced in the US so there's some potential to build up stockpiles quickly especially to support IFPC Inc. 2 for the Army.
